Picture Spring: Appreciation day (an exercise in gratitude)

Picture Spring: Appreciation day (an exercise in gratitude)

No matter what they say, the grass is actually greener on our own side of the fence when we look through the goggles of gratitude. If you look close enough, you’ll see it for yourself; the color, the texture and even the sweet surprises of the season are right there in your own backyard (or front).

Take a long and literal look at the grass at your feet and capture its perfection, just as it is. Remember, you do live on the sunny side of the street.

My appreciation isn’t for the grass at my feet, though I do love it, but for this thatched roof that kept us dry during a downpour.
